La Bourse de commerce: le musée de la collection Pinault à Paris = La Bourse de Commerce : the museum of the Pinault Collection in Paris

Abstract

"This magnificent book recounts and illustrates the story of an iconic monument transformed into a contemporary art museum, designed to exhibit, share, and inspire the collection that François Pinault has assembled over more than 40 years. The book traces the development, both respectful and radical, of a unique building with an unsung legacy. Through the many voices of the contributors to this project, in particular those of Tadao Ando, Lucie Niney, and Thibault Marca, the architects of its transformation, and Pierre-Antoine Gatier, chief architect at the Monuments Historiques, who watched over its restoration, this richly illustrated and carefully documented scientific volume shines a light on the birth of the museum of the Pinault Collection in Paris."--Publisher's description.
